Concert

Bill, Brooke, Jayde, Aubree, Morgan and Adam drove down to Montgomery today to visit for the weekend. Bill, Jayde and Aubree didn't know it, but Gary had arranged for them, Brooke, Erin and I to go to a concert tonigh. Ma stayed home with Mihaela and the two little ones. The rest of us suprised Bill, Jayde and Aubree by taking to see Third Day and Toby Mac.

It was a great concert. The first band was called Day of Fire, a heavy metal christian band. The lead singer used to be a member of a Metal band called "Full Devil's Jacket." However, when a drug overdose landed him in re-hab, he was found by Christ and saved. He is a complete new man. The group finds its roots in the classic metal sound of Metallica and Motley Crue and while you will hear the similarities between them and Pearl Jam or Nickelback, you find phenommal lyrics that show just how merciful and gracious God is. I was truly moved by thier testimony and thier music.

Then, Toby Mac and crew put on a very upbeat, lively, and rocking show. Wow!!! Do they have a lot of energy! It was a great set.

Finally, Third Day performed and an outstanding, worshipful time was had by all. Their newest CD rocks. They had a great light display, excellent video footage, and a wonderful format. It had been 4 or 5 years since they were last in Montgomery and thier stage presence and show has greatly improved.

I missed the debate to go the show but don't really care. I had such a good time. If you get the oppertunity, this is a concert you don't want to miss.
